View original imageOn November 8 local time, President Trump posted an animated video on Truth Social, his social media platform. Made in an art style similar to the American animated series "Family Guy," the video features White standing at the podium in the White House briefing room, surrounded by UFC fighters.
In the video, White appears as the new White House press secretary and takes questions from reporters. When they ask questions, White calls on UFC fighters, who knock the reporters down or drag them out of the briefing room. Even reporters protesting that it is "fascism" are subdued and left lying on the floor.
Trump then walks in and asks, "How was the briefing?" White replies, "It was fiery, but generally peaceful." Trump says, "Excellent," looking pleased, and drinks a cola.
Trump on UFC Fighters: "These Are the People Who Will Protect Us From the Left"
The previous day, President Trump announced on Truth Social that he had offered White the press secretary position, calling him a "brash fighter and warrior." He also said he had asked White to bring in martial arts stars Islam Makhachev, Khabib Nurmagomedov, Justin Gaethje, Daniel Cormier, Amanda Nunes and Kayla Harrison as his "aides."
President Trump referred to the UFC fighters as "these people who will protect us from the radical left." White is a longtime friend of 25 years and an ardent political supporter of President Trump. He has delivered speeches in support of Trump at three Republican National Conventions.
However, U.S. media outlets are speculating about how serious the offer to White is. White reportedly returned from the UK in a hurry and is scheduled to meet President Trump at the White House on November 9.
